重组人胰岛素制备过程中转肽工艺的研究

目的：酵母表达体系制备重组人胰岛素的工艺中,转肽反应属于酶促半合成反应,过程复杂,成本高昂,通过实验研究提高反应效率,降低反应成本。方法：通过优化转肽反应中胰蛋白酶和双保护苏氨酸（Thr（But）OBut）的比例,寻找有利的反应条件,为进一步的条件确定奠定基础;从提高转肽反应物的反应效率出发,调整工艺顺序,将一步转肽反应调整为两步转肽反应;以胰蛋白酶和双保护苏氨酸两种反应物,进行综合成本分析比较;同时采用药典方法测定两种不同工艺制备的重组人胰岛素,进行生物活性的比较分析。结果：通过实验研究,一步转肽反应的收率最高可以达到74%,而两步转肽收率的收率最高可以达到90%;两步转肽反应相比一步转肽反应,酶量减少70%,双保护苏氨酸的使用量降低62.5%,同时提高了转肽反应中胰岛素原的反应浓度,达到12.5 mM,有着进一步开发的潜质;生物活性测定两种工艺生产的重组人胰岛素均符合中国药典的要求。结论：两步转肽反应对比一步转肽反应,提高了反应效率,产物的纯度较高,降低了反应的成本,有利于提高国产胰岛素的市场竞争力。     

血液或无菌体液培养阳性标本中病原菌检测结果分析

目的：了解血培养（包括血液、无菌体液培养,下同）阳性标本中病原菌的分布及阳性报警时间,为临床及时明确病原菌和正确用药提供参考依据。方法：无菌条件下采集血培养标本注人相应的培养瓶,经仪器扫描后放入血培养仪进行检测,报警后及时进行菌种鉴定和药敏试验。结果：364例阳性报警标本中真阳性标本为176例,其中革兰阳性菌占61．7％,革兰阴性菌占35．0％,真菌占3．3％;188例为假阳性标本,其中革兰阳性菌占54％,革兰阴性菌占41．9％,真菌占4．0％;新生儿科的感染阳性率最高;不同种类病原菌的阳性报警时间多重叠;临床医生经验用药正确或根据药敏结果更换用药的百分比为78．2％。结论：本院引起血液、无菌体液感染的病原菌以革兰阳性细菌为主,病原菌种类较多,存在一定的污染;当新生儿有局部感染时要警惕脓毒血症;单独靠血培养仪报警时间来鉴定区分病原菌与污染菌不一定可靠,及时了解血培养结果及标准药敏结果可以辅助找出感染性疾病的病因,尽早正确合理的使用抗菌药物,从而优化抗菌治疗。     

Reduction of In-Stent Restenosis Risk on Nickel-Free Stainless Steel by Regulating Cell Apoptosis and Cell Cycle

High nitrogen nickel-free austenitic stainless steel (HNNF SS) is one of the biomaterials developed recently for circumventing the in-stent restenosis (ISR) in coronary stent applications. To understand the ISR-resistance mechanism, we have conducted a comparative study of cellular and molecular responses of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) to HNNF SS and 316L SS (nickel-containing austenitic 316L stainless steel) which is the stent material used currently. CCK-8 analysis and flow cytometric analysis were used to assess the cellular responses (proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycle), and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to analyze the gene expression profile of HUVECs exposed to HNNF SS and 316L SS, respectively. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that 316L SS could activate the cellular apoptosis more efficiently and initiate an earlier entry into the S-phase of cell cycle than HNNF SS. At the molecular level, qRT-PCR results showed that the genes regulating cell apoptosis and autophagy were overexpressed on 316L SS. Further examination indicated that nickel released from 316L SS triggered the cell apoptosis via Fas-Caspase8-Caspase3 exogenous pathway. These molecular mechanisms of HUVECs present a good model for elucidating the observed cellular responses. The findings in this study furnish valuable information for understanding the mechanism of ISR-resistance on the cellular and molecular basis as well as for developing new biomedical materials for stent applications.     

阿维菌素对半闭弯尾姬蜂保护酶系和解毒酶系的影响

为明确阿维菌素对半闭弯尾姬蜂保护酶系和解毒酶系的影响,采用试管药膜法以阿维菌素亚致死浓度(LC10和LC25)处理半闭弯尾姬蜂成虫,分别于处理后1、12、24和48 h测定其体内保护酶和解毒酶活性变化。结果表明,阿维菌素亚致死浓度处理后,随着时间的延长,对寄生蜂体内超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)和过氧化物酶(POD)活性总体表现为诱导作用;对过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性表现为先抑制后诱导作用;对酯酶(EST)、谷胱甘肽S-转移酶(GST)和多功能氧化酶(MFO)具有显著的抑制作用。研究结果为深入了解半闭弯尾姬蜂对阿维菌素的防御机理提供了一定的理论基础。

Saliency computation via whitened frequency band selection

Many saliency computational models have been proposed to simulate bottom-up visual attention mechanism of human visual system. However, most of them only deal with certain kinds of images or aim at specific applications. In fact, human beings have the ability to correctly select attentive focuses of objects with arbitrary sizes within any scenes. This paper proposes a new bottom-up computational model from the perspective of frequency domain based on the biological discovery of non-Classical Receptive Field (nCRF) in the retina. A saliency map can be obtained according to the idea of Extended Classical Receptive Field. The model is composed of three major steps: firstly decompose the input image into several feature maps representing different frequency bands that cover the whole frequency domain by utilizing Gabor wavelet. Secondly, whiten the feature maps to highlight the embedded saliency information. Thirdly, select some optimal maps, simulating the response of receptive field especially nCRF, to generate the saliency map. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is able to work with stable effect and outstanding performance in a variety of situations as human beings do and is adaptive to both psychological patterns and natural images. Beyond that, biological plausibility of nCRF and Gabor wavelet transform make this approach reliable.     

干旱复水对海棠叶片光合蒸腾及水分利用效率的影响

以13个类型的盆栽海棠为材料,分析了自然干旱及旱后复水时叶片净光合速率(net photosynthesis rate,Pn),蒸腾速率(transpiration rate,Tr)及水分利用效率(water use effi ciency,WUE)。结果表明:13个海棠中,西府海棠的Pn和WUE最低,对水分变化最不敏感;平邑甜茶比较适应轻度和中度干旱,不适应重度干旱。复水后‘紫色王子’、‘绚丽’和‘雪球’等9个类型的Pn明显超过原初状态;‘红艳’、‘糖美林’、‘红粉’、‘红宝石’和‘王族’通过提高WUE来抵抗干旱胁迫,‘绚丽’、‘红丽’和垂丝海棠通过维持较强的恢复能力适应抗旱。干旱时,‘绚丽’比其他海棠能够更高效地利用水分。     

A 3D Homochiral MOF [Cd2(d‐cam)3]•2Hdma•4dma for HPLC Chromatographic Enantioseparation

Up to now, some chiral metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) have been reported for enantioseparation in liquid chromatography. Here we report a homochiral MOF, [Cd2(d‐cam)3]·2Hdma·4dma, used as a new chiral stationary phase for high‐performance liquid chromatographic enantioseparation. Nine racemates of alcohol, naphthol, ketone, and base compounds were used as analytes for evaluating the separation properties of the chiral MOF packed column. Moreover, some effects such as mobile phase composition, column temperature, and analytes mass for separations on this chiral column also were investigated. The relative standard deviations for the resolution values of run‐to‐run and column‐to‐column were less than 2.1% and 3.2%, respectively. The experimental results indicate that the homochiral MOF offered good recognition ability, which promotes the application of chiral MOFs use as stationary phase for enantioseparation.

基于Farquhar改进模型的北亚热带森林常见树种光合限速因子研究

为探讨北亚热带地区植物的光合限速因子,利用改进的Farquhar模型研究了9种常见树种的光合特性。结果表明,与常绿树种相比,落叶树种枫香(Liquidambar formosana)和乌桕(Sapium sebiferum)的最大净光合速率(Pmax)和表观羧化速率(CE)较大;核酮糖-1,5-二磷酸羧化酶/加氧酶(Rubisco)活性是他们的光合限速因子。地带性树种青冈栎(Cyclobalanopsis glauca)的Pmax和CE在常绿木本植物中最大,青冈较强的光合能力可能是来源于Vcmax和TPU。耐阴灌木八角金盘(Fatsia japonica)和美人茶(Camellia uraku)的Pmax较小,其光合限速因子是叶肉细胞导度和呼吸速率。低光照下植物较低的光合能力是由于较小的叶肉导度(gm)和TPU导致的;有效光合辐射短时间的降低使得物种的gm平均减少了60.14%。因此,不同树种在不同环境条件下的光合限速因子不尽相同,应根据树种不同的光合生理特性来合理布局,科学育林。
